Hi! First of all, I would like to thank you for this course, it is being awesome so far!

I would like to make a small suggestion though, I would really appreciate it if there were some way of providing the **links to the hyper-references in the PDFs** … Even if it is just by adding the actual links on the bottom of the slides so we can copy them manually, but I struggled to find some of the suggested contents and even was not able to find others at all.

Also, I would like to make my little contribution sharing the notes I am taking on the course, which I am uploading to [my GitHub](https://github.com/jmtc7/autoware-course).

Thanks again and keep on going, you are creating amazing content!

@jmtc7 It’s slightly inconvenient, but if you download the PDFs, you should be able to click the links.
